Wild at Heart

7.13.2012

Micol is obsessed with this band called Future Islands, so when she found out they were playing a show in Brooklyn the other night it was imperative that we score tix. Little did we know that the nearby venue they performed at, Death by Audio, was a low-ceilinged, two-room, un-airconditioned, basement-like space. For this reason, we also could not have foreseen that by the end of the show everyone would be drenched in sweat and beer. We're talking drenched.

Had I known what I know now, I definitely would not have worn anything more than cutoffs and a tank top to the show. But I decided to wear out this outfit at the time. Smart. Let's just say, every item needs to be dry-cleaned immediately... but it was totally worth it.

Oh and props to anyone who knows and loves the movie that this tank references... I think it's one of my all-time favorite flicks.

Micol's Note:
This is a new track they played...I still get goosebumps....if you can see them live I highly recommend it. Click through to purchase and definitely check out their latest album on iTunes.

OMG I was just about to say before I read the rest of the post, do you know that I am completely obsessed with the movie wild hearts can't be broken?? I used to pretend to jump on a horse while I was going off the diving board into my pool. I was a really cool kid. Obviously I love that shirt! And the best concerts are always the ones where you get covered in beer, its some sort of rule haha.

Super-cool outfit. Too bad it had such a rough night... but as you said, that's what dry cleaners are for. ;) I just checked out Future Islands, as I've never heard of them before, and they are really good!! Thanks for sharing! :)xo Andrea

I love this edgy look on you! The top is so cute and I love that you're worn the tulip skirt with it. So unexpected, but so perfect!I hope you had fun at the concert. Sometimes those venues are the best places to see a band, but it really does suck when you aren't dressed properly for it. At least you looked hot!!

You look hot! I hope the concert was worth the sweaty mess...in my experience a concert that ends in a good beer and sweat drenching always is ;) PS- Next time we need a detail shot of the shoes...I LOVE THEM!
